Ext. A midsummer dawn. Thornfield the grounds

ROCHESTER (CONT'D)

Look at his wings. He looks West

Indian - I have never seen one

like him, here. There; flown.

They watch the moth as it flies towards the house.

ROCHESTER (CONT'D)

Thornfield is a pleasant place in

summer, isn't it?

JANE

I'll be sad to leave it.

ROCHESTER

Yes, but it can't be helped. I

soon hope to be a bridegroom.

JANE

Have you found me a new situation,

sir?

ROCHESTER

A situation, yes of course. It's

the least I can do for a faithful

paid subordinate such as yourself.

You're to undertake the education

of the five daughters of Mrs

Dionysus O'Gall of Bitternut Lodge,

Connaught.
